Active clinical trials for "Malnutrition"

The objective of this study was to compare the rate and extent of absorption of Ranbaxy Laboratories Limited, India, Amoxicillin-Clavulanic acid and GlaxoSmithKline, U.S.A. (Augmentin ES-600), amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, administered as a 1 x 5 mL (600 mg - 42.9 mg) oral suspension, under fed conditions.

An open label, randomised, two-treatment, four-period, two-sequence, single-dose, crossover, fully replicated bioavailability study on Nitrofurantoin formulations comparing Nitrofurantoin 100 mg capsules of Ranbaxy Laboratories with Macrobid 100 mg capsules in healthy, adult, human subjects under fed conditions

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative bioavailability of the test formulation of sertraline 100 mg tablets with an already marketed reference formulation Zoloft® 100 mg tablets (Pfizer), under non-fasting conditions in healthy male and female adult subjects.

The objective of this study was to assess the single-dose relative bioavailability of Ranbaxy and GlaxoSmithKline (Retrovir ®) 300 mg Zidovudine tablets, under fed conditions

Objective: To assess the bioequivalence of Risperidone 1.0 mg tablets of Torrent Pharmaceuticals Limited., India and Risperdal® (Risperidone) 1.0 mg tablets of Janssen Pharmaceutical Products, LP, USA, in healthy human adult subjects, under fed conditions. Study Design: A randomized, open label, two treatment, two period, two sequence, single dose, crossover study, under fed conditions.

The purpose of this study is to compare relative bioavailability of the test formulation of ropinirole hydrochloride 0.25 mg tablets (Manufactured and distributed by TEVA Pharmaceuticals USA) with the already approved formulation REQUIP® (ropinirole hydrochloride) 0.25 mg tablets (GlaxoSmithKline) under fed conditions in healthy, adult subjects.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the GI tolerance, palatability and compliance to a high protein energy-dense oral nutrition supplement in adult patients with or at risk of malnutrition.

Celiac disease is defined as an autoimmune enteropathy with malabsorption of gluten protein. In recent studies, it has been stated that in individuals diagnosed with celiac disease, intestinal epithelial barrier integrity is impaired. Increased zonulin concentration in blood is considered as an indicator of increased intestinal permeability. Gluten-free diet is the only treatment of celiac disease. Adherence to gluten free diet provides decreasing of intestinal permeability however gluten free diet has different aspects on nutritional status and health related quality of life in people with celiac disease. The aim of this study is to determine nutritional status, intestinal permeability and quality of life in people with celiac disease. In the study,it primarily hypothesized that celiac patients noncompliant to gluten-free diet may have increased circulating levels of zonulin and increased intestinal permeability compared to celiac patients compliant to gluten-free diet.

A multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be performed in three hospitals. Patients meeting inclusion criteria will be randomly allocated to one of three enteral feeding formula with different protein content. Blood and urine test, nitrogen balance assessment and energy expenditure testing by indirect calorimetry will be performed at the beginning of nutrition regimen and at 24 hours, 72 hours and 5-7 days after initiation. The sample size for this trial is estimated as 90 participants, with approximately 30 participants in each group. The data analysis will be by intention to treat. This RCT will provide new data about the amount of protein needed to improve levels of serum protein and nitrogen balance, surrogate of protein balance, in critically ill infants receiving enteral nutrition.

Background: Inadequate nutrition has been associated with growing risk of falling and impaired ability in elderly patients. Falling is a significant threat to the health of the elderly. It is estimated that one third of people over the age of 65 experience at least one falling each year. Over 60% of the falls cause serious injury or disability. Adequate nutrition increases the muscle strength of the elderly. Therefore, determining and managing the nutrition level is important for preventing falling. As far as we know emergency medical services has never before reported being a part of prevention by performing risk identification.
